Praying About the Future

07 26 Luke 18.1-8 Jesus continues His discussion regarding the coming Kingdom with a parable.  Knowing that events leading up to the coming of Christ will only get worse, what should we do?  There are only two things.  We can either become discouraged and fainthearted by it all or we can pray.  Prayer emboldens and encourages us to remain faithful until the Lord returns.  We must be courageous, committed, and confident in prayer.  With seeming injustice, we are reminded that God will eventually bring judgment.

It’s About Time

07 19 Luke 17.20-37 The Pharisees thought they were already part of the Kingdom of God.  Jesus told them the kingdom needed to be in them.   Because they had rejected the king, they were not part of the kingdom.  They needed to believe Jesus was the Messiah and they would not.  Jesus told the disciples about the physical kingdom that was still in the future.  The Lord will return and bring judgment just as it was in the days of Noah and Lot.  Be ready, it’s about time.

Just Passing Through

07 12 Luke 17.11-19  What is that everyone needs but no one deserves?  It’s what 10 lepers ask for.  It’s mercy.  Only the Lord can give it.  Otherwise we all deserve to die.  In time, if nothing could be done, these 10 lepers would die.  As Jesus was passing through town one day on His way to Jerusalem they stop Him and ask for mercy.  They wanted to be cleansed of their accursed disease and the inevitability of death.  Jesus saw them and moved with compassion for them, healed them as they went to see the priest.  But only one came back, and Scripture tells us he was grateful and worshipful.  That day he received more than physical healing for his body.  He also received spiritual healing for his soul.  Jesus said it was his faith.  Have you been cleansed of sin?

Serving Up Selflessness

07 05 15 Luke 17.7-10 Jesus concludes this series of instructions to the disciples with a lesson on service.  Scripture reminds us of our need to serve the Lord and each other.  There are many, many ways to do so.  We need to be observant and obedient stepping out in faith to assist others in need.
